Yeah, I am with you. Four points will be enough.

There's still the very slim chance that 2 points could be enough - although it would require England winning by 5, or by 4 with a Slovenia red card and at least one yellow more than we get tomorrow. 

4 will see us through. Just get them pumped.

Surely the group B and F scenario is the more likely way to get through with 2?

So at the moment it’s either:

 

Win and 2 of:

- Spain avoid defeat v Albania

- England avoid defeat v Slovenia

- Netherlands beat Austria

- Portugal avoid defeat v Georgia

- GROUP E SCENARIO TBD

 

 

or draw and Spain, Italy, Portugal and Turkey beat Albania, Croatia, Georgia and Czechoslovakia respectively.

or draw and Spain, Italy, Portugal and Turkey all avoid defeat against Albania, Croatia, Georgia and Czechoslovakia respectively. 

If the Czechs draw then they will go above us on GD, surely we need Turkey to win that?

So Spain and Portugal confirmed as group winners.

IF WE QUALIFY in 3rd place we will play one of them or whoever wins group E. If Belgium beat Romania tonight all 4 teams in that group will have 3 points after 2 games.

Is the continued use of Czechoslovakia despite it being pointed out multiple times some sort of bizarre political stance?

It's especially weird because unlike with Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, the name 'Czechoslovakia' very clearly incorporates two modern day countries, both of which are playing in the finals of this very tournament. 

The fact that we're no longer actually dealing with Czechoslovakia (and haven't for 3 decades) could not be more starkly apparent.

Hats off to the guy for his perseverance.
